All shops are very different, I know of a car thats been well set up for 7 years,Needed a bit of a tune so he went to a well knowen shop for a tune only to be told his ECU was no good even tho it had been for so long. He was sold a new ECU and the drive away price was over $7000.

The guy drove down the road and ran out of fuel,Got some more and told the tuner the car ran badly and had run out of fuel only to be told his car was not tune as it had no Fuel. 7K drive away with no tune and no fuel is rough and worse still he now finds he has no other tuner options.

Make sure you know what you are getting before you leave your cars anywhere.

I got my car tuned on Friday. It cost me $880 to get a Nistune ecu and tuned. One set fee I've heard. But that was for a rb20det using my ecu. Not sure wat u got.

It was pretty exciting hearing and seeing my car on the dyno. And good results to.

Im in the same boat with ya drift4, so can i get this straight. they replace your old ECU with a new one (powerFC??), then they remap your air fuel ratios n stuff on the dyno? or do they upload/tweak your existing ECU on the dyno?

I know, i should be shot :)

how long's a piece of string? all depends on how well ur car is prepared, best case scenario ur car is functioning perfectly and a tune can only take an hour or 2, but if there are any issues ul have to factor in diagnosis time, parts, time taken to rectify problem etc. my car took half hour on the dyno cos it was well prepared etc, whereas i saw a v6t gemini on the dybno for 2 days cos it was just slapped together

dont get emanage..

emanage = fail

so you have run emange ecu's in your car ????

what didn't u like, a bit more reason than fail might help a few people out, the only reason around seems to be with tuners, not the ecu, most tuners don't know the software, so won't touch
